I know a lot of people that turn their nose up at tofu - just mentioning it sets them running in the opposite direction! It is disguised in this wonderful salad. It adds protein and nutrition and takes on the flavors of the other ingredients so that you don't even notice it is there. If you haven't tried tofu, you gotta try it in this salad.

Rinse the beans. Crumble the tofu into small pieces. Mix together with all the vegetables. In a glass jar mix the vinegar, oil, stevia and seasoning and shake well until emulsified. Pour over the salad and refrigerate for several hours. Serve on bed of lettuce or greens.

About Me

I'm a Mom, a Grandma and a Great-grandma. I am very close to my family but they just do not "get" my art. So I will share it here, hopefully with people that do "get" it and like it, or are at least interested in seeing it. I have just become a "health nut" (for the empteenth time in my life) and love studing nutrition and coming up with new recipes using only fresh ingredients. I am a Christian and God tops the list of my friends. He is also my Father, my Counselor and my Guide. I feel extremely blessed to have a loving family and many wonderful friends, including friends I have met online at MySpace and Flickr. I hope this blog will be a format for further communication with all those I hold dear and will, perhaps, put me in contact with some more fellow artists and health nuts.
